Chapter 2224noveldrama

Benjamin didn't play any tricks as he truly wanted to let them go. He had come to his senses and realized that Liam was sincere toward Amber, thus he wanted to let Liam go.

Besides, someone else had instructed him to do so. It was obvious who that was.

The Jenkins family would have closer cooperation with Hunt Enterprise in the coming years. Moreover, this cooperation would help them earn money easily. It would be ridiculous of him to give up those profits just to satisfy his wrath.

Before leaving, Renee and the others sat in the pickup truck except for Liam. He stood at the door and kept looking around. He didn't get into the car for a long time.

"What's taking him so long? Why didn't he get in the car? We can't leave if Benjamin suddenly regrets it!" Leia said.

She sat beside the window and lowered it, about to wave at Liam before Renee stopped her in time.

"Stop urging him. It's still early. Nothing will go wrong since Benjamin agreed to let us go. You have to give Liam some time to say goodbye." Renee looked at how Liam kept looking around and shook her head helplessly.

Liam sounded heartless, but in truth, he had already fallen in love with Amber. If not, he wouldn't be reluctant to part with her.

"What? Who's he trying to say goodbye to? It's such a primitive place, full of violent people. I can't wait to get out of here, but he finds it hard to leave. Is he too stressed after staying here for a long time? Is he suffering from Stockholm syndrome?" Leia complained jokingly.

"No, you're wrong. He can't bear to part with someone here..."

Renee followed Liam's gaze and looked around, but failed to find Amber. What's more, Amber didn't even attend the party. It was unknown whether Benjamin had prohibited her, or if she was trying to avoid them.

"Oh, are you talking about Amber?" Leia was enlightened, but then frowned in confusion." But that day, Liam said he felt nothing for her. He wanted nothing to do with her. He also said he blocked the stab instinctively and he would've done that for anyone else. I'm sure it won't be hard for him to part with someone he feels nothing for."

Liam tried his best to avoid Amber that day, and Leia could see that. Because of that, she was certain he wouldn't be reluctant to part with Amber.

"You're so naive! Some men are the same as women. They didn't mean what they said. Sometimes when they claim that they didn't like someone, they mean otherwise," Renee commented sharply.

She might be ignorant about other men, but Liam was contradictory that way. He blocked the stab for Amber because he loved her, but he pretended that it wasn't a big deal and tried to hide his feelings for her.

"Yes, I agree." Xavier, who was sitting in the front seat, tilted his head and looked at them. He placed his hand on his heart and said, "I think I'm that kind of man. I might look casual and don't love anyone, like a playboy, but I'm actually passionate and loyal."

Leia rolled her eyes and retched.

Liam paced back and forth for some time, but still failed to see the person he was waiting for. When he was about to give up, he saw Hailey Ashworth, Amber's servant.

Hailey was gasping and running toward Liam.
